I am getting this error on my screen and the computer will shut down and reboot constantly...I have run the system diagnostic...Both the two minute one and the three hour one...No problems are being found. The laptop will work for maybe 30 minutes but then it just shuts down...I have changed the battery because the other one was bad but I need help please. Thank you.

@Mark1976 Welcome to HP Community!
I understand that you are getting a boot device not found an error.
Please perform the hard reset and check.
Hard Reset:
1) Shutdown the computer.
2) Unplug all the Adapter and peripherals connected.
3) Remove the Battery. ( not for Built-in Battery computer )
4) Press and hold down the power button for 15 to 20 seconds.
5) Plug-in the Adapter and put the Battery back into the computer if it's a (removable battery)
6) Try to turn on the computer and check,
Please perform the hard drive test and check.
1) Shutdown the computer.
2) Turn the computer back on again and repeatedly tap on the ESC until a Startup menu appears.
3) Press F2 once.
4) Go to Component test.
5) From the list, run the Hard Drive (extensive) test.
If the test is passed, you have to perform the recovery.
I would suggest you perform the P cloud recovery.
